Shouldn't this be more about having a diet based on local foods rather than just be vegetarian/vegan? I'm saying this after seeing a couple of documentaries on german tv where they were showing the impact of almond and avocado "crops" in North and South America. It's crazy how much water and terrain needs to be used and de-forested for these things, I know avocado is seen as a super-food and everybody is crazy bout it now, same with almond milk/drinks, but still, looking at a lot of the vegan options that we have here, you look in your plate and see that more than half of the ingredients from a whatever bowl or vegan lunch are brought to you half way around the globe from a country where they destroyed forests and natural environments just so you can enjoy these things.
